Onyx-Toned Green Onyx · Capsule Backplate · Opal Glass Orb · Hand-Cut Stone
A wall sconce composed of an oval capsule-shaped backplate hand-cut from natural green onyx, with a frosted opal glass orb sitting partly recessed at the top. When lit, the orb produces a soft, even glow that catches the dramatic veining and color-banding of the stone behind it.
Each backplate is unique — green onyx forms in mineral layers that create swirls of cream, Onyx-green, and warm red-brown veining, distinct in every piece. Suited to headboard flanking, hallways, mirror walls, and any installation where you want a natural-stone focal point.
Features
Genuine Green Onyx
Hand-cut natural stone with Onyx-green and red-brown veining — every piece is one-of-a-kind.
Capsule Silhouette
Soft oval form softens the wall composition — neither a hard rectangle nor a circle.
Opal Glass Orb
Frosted glass diffuses the bulb into a soft, glare-free glow against the stone.
Stone Finish
Onyx-Toned Green Onyx
Hand-cut natural stone with cream, soft green, and warm red-brown veining. Pairs with neutral walls, oak, brass accents, and contemporary or organic-modern interiors. Each piece is unique — patterns vary between sconces.
About the material name. The "Onyx" in the product name refers to the stone's Onyx-green coloration — the actual material is green onyx, a translucent calcite-based stone whose natural color resembles Onyx. True Onyx is opaque and used primarily in jewelry. Green onyx is the correct material — translucent, layered, and naturally veined.

FAQ
Is this real Onyx stone? +
No — this is green onyx, named "Onyx" for its Onyx-green color, not for being actual Onyx. True Onyx (nephrite or Onyxite) is an opaque mineral used primarily in jewelry, not lighting. Green onyx is a translucent calcite-based stone whose natural color happens to resemble Onyx — it's the actual material you'll receive, with the dramatic translucent veining shown in the photographs.
Will my piece look exactly like the photo? +
No — every backplate is hand-cut from natural green onyx, so the pattern of veining, color intensity, and grain direction varies between pieces. Yours will share the same overall character as the photographs but the specific markings will be one-of-a-kind. For close color matching across a pair or set, leave a note at checkout and we'll select coordinated pieces.
What bulb does it take? +
One G9 LED bulb (not included). G9 is a small bi-pin base, common in compact decorative fixtures and widely available. We recommend a dimmable G9 LED up to 5W in warm white (3000K) for the most flattering glow through the opal glass against the stone backplate.
Can I order it as a pair? +
Yes — works beautifully in pairs flanking a headboard, mirror, or doorway. Just order two units. Because each stone is naturally unique, a pair will share overall character but won't be identical. For closer matching, leave a note at checkout.
Can I install it in a bathroom? +
Yes — well-suited to bathroom walls, particularly powder rooms or above vanity mirrors. Because onyx is naturally porous, install away from direct shower spray or steam concentration. Standard ventilation and normal bathroom humidity are not a concern.
